25:1

And Israel
<03478>

abode
<03427> (8799)

in Shittim
<07851>_,

and the people
<05971>

began
<02490> (8686)

to commit whoredom
<02181> (8800)

with the daughters
<01323>

of Moab
<04124>_.

25:2

And they called
<07121> (8799)

the people
<05971>

unto the sacrifices
<02077>

of their gods
<0430>_:

and the people
<05971>

did eat
<0398> (8799)_,

and bowed down
<07812> (8691)

to their gods
<0430>_.

25:3

And Israel
<03478>

joined
<06775> (8735)

himself unto Baalpeor
<01187>_:

and the anger
<0639>

of the LORD
<03068>

was kindled
<02734> (8799)

against Israel
<03478>_.

25:4

And the LORD
<03068>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto Moses
<04872>_,

Take
<03947> (8798)

all the heads
<07218>

of the people
<05971>_,

and hang them up
<03363> (8685)

before
<05048>

the LORD
<03068>

against the sun
<08121>_,

that the fierce
<02740>

anger
<0639>

of the LORD
<03068>

may be turned away
<07725> (8799)

from Israel
<03478>_.

25:5

And Moses
<04872>

said
<0559> (8799)

unto the judges
<08199> (8802)

of Israel
<03478>_,

Slay
<02026> (8798)

ye every
<0376>

one
<0376>

his men
<0582>

that were joined
<06775> (8737)

unto Baalpeor
<01187>_.

25:6

And, behold, one
<0376>

of the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

came
<0935> (8802)

and brought
<07126> (8686)

unto his brethren
<0251>

a Midianitish woman
<04084>

in the sight
<05869>

of Moses
<04872>_,

and in the sight
<05869>

of all the congregation
<05712>

of the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

who [were] weeping
<01058> (8802)

[before] the door
<06607>

of the tabernacle
<0168>

of the congregation
<04150>_.

25:7

And when Phinehas
<06372>_,

the son
<01121>

of Eleazar
<0499>_,

the son
<01121>

of Aaron
<0175>

the priest
<03548>_,

saw
<07200> (8799)

[it], he rose up
<06965> (8799)

from among
<08432>

the congregation
<05712>_,

and took
<03947> (8799)

a javelin
<07420>

in his hand
<03027>_;

25:8

And he went
<0935> (8799)

after
<0310>

the man
<0376>

of Israel
<03478>

into the tent
<06898>_,

and thrust
<01856> (8799)

both
<08147>

of them through, the man
<0376>

of Israel
<03478>_,

and the woman
<0802>

through
<0413>

her belly
<06897>_.

So the plague
<04046>

was stayed
<06113> (8735)

from the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_.

25:9

And those that died
<04191> (8801)

in the plague
<04046>

were twenty
<06242>

and four
<0702>

thousand
<0505>_.

25:10

And the LORD
<03068>

spake
<01696> (8762)

unto Moses
<04872>_,

saying
<0559> (8800)_,

25:11

Phinehas
<06372>_,

the son
<01121>

of Eleazar
<0499>_,

the son
<01121>

of Aaron
<0175>

the priest
<03548>_,

hath turned
<07725> (0)

my wrath
<02534>

away
<07725> (8689)

from the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_,

while he was zealous
<07065> (8763)

for my sake
<07068>

among
<08432>

them, that I consumed
<03615> (8765)

not the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>

in my jealousy
<07068>_.

<0559> (8798)_,

Behold, I give

<01285>

of peace
<07965>_:

25:13

And he shall have it, and his seed
<02233>

after
<0310>

him, [even] the covenant
<01285>

of an everlasting
<05769>

priesthood
<03550>_;

because
<0834>

he was zealous
<07065> (8765)

for his God
<0430>_,

and made an atonement
<03722> (8762)

for the children
<01121>

of Israel
<03478>_.

<08034>
